About this position
University College Dublin is advertising a temporary 24-month Post-doctoral Research Fellow Level 1 or 2 in the School of Civil Engineering.
The project, NETSENS, focuses on next-generation bridge network monitoring using acceleration responses collected by sensors installed on moving vehicles. Research themes include drive-by bridge damage detection, handling environmental and operational variability through cointegration, generating labelled datasets with Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Networks, population-based bridge monitoring, physics-guided deep neural networks, cross physics-data domain loss functions, and network-level diagnostic algorithms using domain adaptation.
This opportunity is strongly aligned with Civil Engineering and Computer Science, with additional overlap in structural dynamics and mechanics. The post is open at two levels: PD1 for early-stage researchers after a PhD or entering a new area, and PD2 for researchers who have completed PD1.
Funding details include a PD1 salary range of €47,273–€53,925 per annum depending on qualifications and experience, and a PD2 fixed salary of €55,399 per annum. The closing date is 7 September 2026 at 12:00 noon local Irish time. Applicants must submit through the vacancy page before the deadline; late applications are not accepted.
